Ok im currently have a problem with my new build
the specs are

AMD 8320 FX Piledriver
GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3
8 GB Corsair Vengeance
7870 2GB

my problems is that i cannot even get the pc to show any signs that it is booting up, the components start up but i get no image on screen, i have tried test out to make sure one is faulty but I have hit a wall, one thing i thought was that the mobo may need to be flash to support the cpu those it is supported on the main site yet i would have no idea how to do this without a screen to look at. if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated

"
To enable AM3+ AMD FX-Series CPU support, please update your motherboard with the most current BIOS found in your motherboard’s download section."

that is on the motherboards section on there site

those according to supplier i purchased it from they have updated it for me

the problem also being if it is an update how can i do this without seeing anything.
 
You'll need a CPU that will run under the BIOS you have now in order to update it. Most folks bought a cheap CPU in order to do that.
 
The board doesn't support the 8320 at all, there is no bios update for the 8320. You'll need a different processor.
 
Even though a few AM3+ 125W are listed. It looks like they have stopped support for newer 125W processors. Could have had problems with the CPU mosfets and chokes with heat.
